I AM SCREWED. HELP! 2002-02-23 18:48:38


OK for my computer engineering class my end year project is I have to design a basic interface, it doesn't matter what it looks like. What it has to is control a number display and four led's(mini light bulbs) that are on a breadboard by hooking it up to the parallel port (what the printer is hooked up too.) so that you can light up each led individualy and control which number is shown on the number displayer. I am screwed because I have to learn a code by myself to do this.

Is there any suggestions on what code would be easiest to learn that could make this happen, and any suggestions for sites where I could learn it, thank you.

p.s.
If at all it could be done with flash (which I doubt) please tell me.

Of course it can be done with Flash. Flash can do anything as long as you keep it 2 dimensional. Explain it in more depth and I will be able to help.

i dont think flash would be able to control outside ports .....it would need a lot of advanced scripting probably ...but if ure good at that then try it...if ure not im not the person 2 ask try that uncle boris guy...judging by his casino game he can do pretty advanced scripting...im sure there's a way round ure problem

Wha's that s'posed to mean??
flASh is simply wizzard at doing 3D too!

Bak2Topik.. get a near-ded printer (low voltage) and take it apart while trying to printing sumthing. You'll be fixing robots in no time! ;)
